William Shockley got in trouble for observing and suggesting that a successful black with say, typical middle class/upper middle class mores, isn’t very likely to marry somebody from “da hood” with or without a HS diploma, etc.

A store that sells new husbands has opened in Manchester, just off Elm Street where a woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates:

You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are six floors and the value of the products increase as the shopper ascends the flights. The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building!

So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads:
Floor 1 - These men Have Jobs

She is intrigued, but continues to the second floor, where the sign reads:
Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids.

‘That’s nice,’ she thinks, ‘but I want more.’

So she continues upward. The third floor sign reads:
Floor 3 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, and are Extremely Good Looking.

‘Wow,’ she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.

She goes to the fourth floor and the sign reads:
Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and Help With Housework...

‘Oh, mercy me!’ she exclaims, ‘I can hardly stand it!’

Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the sign reads:
Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with Housework, and Have a Strong Romantic Streak.

She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor, where the sign reads:
Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor...
This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please.

Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store.

PLEASE NOTE:
To avoid gender bias charges, the store’s owner opened a New Wives store just across the street with the same rules.

The first floor has wives that love sex.

The second floor has wives that love sex and have money and like beer.

I saw an article the other day where they described Slick William Clinton as: “former beloved president Clinton.” (”Comrades! We have glorious news for you!”)
The women that he assaulted and their families and friends, Army Rangers, the WH travel office, the American Spectator, others too numerous to mention along with about half the rest of the country might have something to say about that description.
But the Ministry of Truth still subscribes to the belief, “Who controls the present, controls the past. Who controls the past controls the future.”
I’m thinking when the persons of color start rioting in the inner cities, I may be close to the newspapers and TV stations passing out rope.
“No, no, bro’—the rabbit goes `round & `round the hole an odd number of times, then snug it up really tight, like this! There you go ... “
“Look there, there are some honkies getting in a news truck!
Are you just going to stand there?”
(Yeah, I know. I’m a honky too. I’ll be holding a gun on `em during knot-tying class.)

>>Why do the media continuously say that Moochelle is beautiful, and even more ridiculously stylish?

First rule of propaganda: tell a lie often enough and eventually it becomes the truth.

Same with “Obama is smart”, “Obama is articulate.”, “Obama is a constitutional scholar.”, “Obama is a Christian.”, and so on. Most of the MSM aren’t that stupid, so imagine they all go home at night wondering how they went from journalist to lying propagandist, and the big question they must ask themselves when they are all alone: “why isn’t My Guy everything I have to pump him up to appear to be?”

Well, if you read some older female authors, such as Jane Austen and Emily Bronte, you’ll find that the act of marrying up for money and status is common, either way. In Sense and Sensibilities, the ladies-man Willaby frequently seduces young women in order to bed them and dumps them, but when he finally gets married, he marries an extremely wealthy woman. Clearly, he married for money.

Conversely, women were pressured and advised to marry up, regardless, to the point where Jane Austen describes a mother’s sole purpose in life to marry her daughters to wealthy men.

Marrying for money is pretty much fair game across the board. The only reason its associated more with women is because at one point, it was the only way women could have anything (while Austen wrote women were not permitted to own property).

In general though, your statement about position and status is true in today’s society. I wouldn’t go so far as to say ‘never,’ though.
